[QUOTE="MrNiceGuy, post: 745124, member: 71464"] Macworld did some benchmarks on a few shooters and they were all very playable at high settings. COD4 almost did 30fps, so I imagine we will be able to play pretty much anything we throw at it, minus the likes of Crysis. [url=http://www.macworld.com/article/136251/2008/10/macbookgraphics.html]Macworld | From the Lab | Benchmarks: The new MacBook and games[/url] I just just purchased a 2.0ghz aluminum, seeing as the difference between the 2.4ghz is minimal in terms of gaming. I have a 7200rpm 320gb seagate drive I'm going to add, plus I will upgrade to 4gb when the time is right. Wonder if adding that extra 2gb of ram will make any difference while gaming. Once I get this lil beauty I'll do some tests and see what kind of frame rates we can achieve in some of the newer non-FPS games. [/QUOTE]
